Third International Conference
22-25 February 1999, Anguilla, BWI

FC99, the third international
conference on financial data security and digital commerce, will be held 22-25 Febuary
1999 in Anguilla, British West Indies. FC99 aims to bring
together persons involved in both the financial and data security fields to foster
cooperation and exchange of ideas. The conference is organized by the International Financial Cryptography Association (IFCA).

The conference will be held at Chandeliers, the conference facility of the
InterIsland Hotel, which is on Road Bay, near Sandy Ground Village, in the South Hill
section of Anguilla.

In addition to the regular conference program, an evening rump session will
provide an opportunity for less formal presentations. A prize of $350 worth of
e-gold will be awarded for the best rump session presentation, as determined by an
independent panel of judges appointed by the rump session chair.

An exhibition will be held in conjunction with the scientific program, with product
displays, demonstrations, and presentations of a business-oriented nature.

The recommended hotel is Mariners, where a block
reservation has been made. Shuttle service between the conference and the Mariners
hotel will be available.To reserve a room, please call the hotel and mention that
you will be attending FC99. A group rate has also been arranged at the more
expensive but fancier Sonesta
resort.

For students and others seeking budget accommodations we recommend the Pavilion (about a 10-minute drive from
the conference site). Other low-budget options include Willies
Inn (which is within walking distance) and the InterIsland itself. Both offer very basic
accommodations.

Note: Mariners and the Pavilion are now full. A list of hotels in Anguilla is
available via the button at left.
